Dave Bautista might play Kratos

According to the new reports, it appears that former WWE Star and Hollywood actor Bautista might portray Kratos in the upcoming TV Series.

Some fans have been voicing him due to his impressive, imposing physique and action-film experience

The 6-foot-4 actor is a likely fit for the Spartan warrior, as he’s played a number of roles in franchise movies like Guardians of the Galaxy, Dune and Knock at the Cabin.

If these negotiations are successful, the production may resume once again later this year.

Do remember that nothing is officially confirmed by Amazon or Sony yet!

Season 2 already in production

Despite the delay for Season 1, God of War TV Series Season 2 production is reportedly underway. The recent reports also suggested that Amazon might be looking to cast Atreus and Thrud in an older version for the 2nd season.
